11N-lli"lin`v f STATES LEON FRIEDMAN, or iainWAUKnni/viscoiisin 1f .Nlioxfrin `Application flies' catetere, laas.` semina, slfiaaaf Y This invention relates to neckties. l

Y i lIn neckties of the'better lvariety it has been i found-that wliere theneckti'e is lined with a silk liningthroughout its extent, it sells coni sdeiably better than otherwise,l However, it has been found that the silk lining andthe .main body or .covering ofthe tie, vdo not stretch to the same degree kand pucle'ring results after a short interval ,of use.

This invention is designed to, overcome the defects noted above,.and objectsofithis invention are tofprovide ajnovel' necktie which is so constructedthatthe lining, which t preferably extends from one end "of the tie l5 to the other, adheres throughout its extent to the'cove'r or outer portion of thev tie, softh'at when stretching occurs, the'r two'layers will move as one unit and independent, or irregular stretching of the layers will Vnot result v2G with the consequence that the Atie'lwill remainv smoothand substantially free from wrinkles for a great length ofi-time. More specifically, objects'of this invention are to provide a'novel form of neclgtie,in

' which the lining ls'projvlflegi with@ Slik Outer exposed face and withv a wool interior, .which f give body to the tie, and which also provides a nap which 'interlocks or engages the entire face of the outer covering of the tie, and thus 30 causes the lining to adhere throughout its length to the-outer covering of the tie.

Further kobjects of this invention are to provide a novel form oftie in which the 1ina bias, so that the outer ply andlining fabric maybe laid one upon the other and the patt terns placed thereon and the ytie-cut there-V fromv thus simultaneously cu'ttinglboth Athe lining and the outer `ply. Thereafter, ythe be described, and the angle of the` warp and weft lining is identically the sameas the warp and weft of the outerl ply. This insures/*the ,Y

uniform stretching or motion of thelining l and the outer ply, so that these two members move as a unit due to ythe fact that `their threads run in identically theisame manner. An embodiment ofthe invention isshown in the accompanying draw-ings in which:V

These layers,V that is to say, the outer covering and the inner lining, are stitched together by lines of .l Y

stitching et throughout the Ainajor portion of their extent while the two layers are reversed. l

to close the ends-of the tie.. e L Y A With the tie constructed in this manner, it1 has been foun'dfroniy actual tests that the two layers l and 2 stretch as a single unit, as the inner layer substantially adheres to the outer layer throughout its entire extent. -There is,i-

therefore, 'no necessityv for other ystilfening vterior and a silk exterior which gives a suffi# 4 cient body to thetie to answer allof the requirenients. t The lining is woven-on a bias, as wellvas p This enables the materialfor the lining as Vwell as the outer'cover-V .t iing'to be laidone upon the other and the patterns then laidon the two pieces sothat both at the saine time. Thereafter, the plys are f stitched'togetlier, as described above, andfit will be seen that'theangle of the threads is Figuresl andy 2, theangleof the threads is. l

,the same in theouter ply and at the lining,

as indicated at theportions 6'and 7.

Thus, the stretching or` give of the outer 4ply and of the lining is identically the same, w

sothat there is no puckering. Y

In addition, the tie has the novel character# j istics noted `above in that it will stretch as a'singletunit'and notas two composite layers when in actual use. f L v i lill' v Thereafter, the tie isturned -insidie out and additional stitching 5 is formed atits ends v i Although the invention has been described in considerable detail, such description is intended as illustrative rather than limiting as the invention may be variously embodied and 5 as the scope of such invention is to be determined as claimed.

I claim:-

A neclztie comprising en outer covering and an inner lining, the inner lining having lo e Silk outer side and a Wool inner side having' a. decided nap, With the nap in Contact with the covering, the Warp and vveiit threads of the lining and covering runningat 2t bias and at identically the saine angle whereby to pro- 15 vide for the saine degree of simultaneous give in the lining and outer covering.

In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand at Milwaukee, in the county of Milwaukee and State of Vis- 2g eonsin.
